I started this thread with the same photo again because I had some saying Scaup and some saying Tuftie in a 50/50 split. You will see this photo again on a new post some time today along with other photos of the same bird.
Either tonight or tomorrow I will start a fresh thread with other photos of the waterbird. I will see if I've got a side view photo or any other photo of use. Thanks. LittleEgret32
Looking at the internet I'm drawn to Scaup. Can I have confirmation of Tufted Duck. 'birdboybowley' is probably right but just looking on the web my photo looks just like a female Scaup.
In a previous post, I had 2 people saying it was a Cattle Egret and about 5 saying it was Little. Please can a highly knowledgable watcher or Expert give their opinion but I would also love to hear the opinions of new or still fairly unexperienced watchers. I will count up the answers to decide...
Please help identify this waterbird. It is either a Tufted duck or Scaup. The only way to determine the 2 birds is the amount of white on the face. Note the bird had a fully white underbelly and was sighted a few hundred metres inshore in a small freshwater lake among others of its type.

I need help identifying the following birds, 1 and 3 were sighted in North Norfolk, UK and 2 was sighted in Hertfordshie, UK.
Picture 1: I think is a Tufted Duck or Scaup, the white around the face seems to be fairly extensive.
Picture 2: Almost certainly 1 of 15 million Blue tits in the UK...
Hi, I wasn't 100% sure what this bird was when I first saw it. I knew it was some kind of Grebe but had no idea what. When I got home, I looked at all the possibilities and thought the most likely Grebe it was, was a Great Cresed Grebe. However, I am not entirely sure and just wanted...
I think most of them are the same species and there are not more than 2 different species I have photographs but I just want to know what Terns I have seen. Sorry for the poor imagery, I had to edit these photos a lot because I was so far away from the Terns. If it helps, all the photos were...
